It is the faith school situation I am referring to. But that's getting off topic a bit.
My main point is, there should be accurate journalism that portrays issues evenly for all political parties, and the political parties should do all they can to stamp out prejudice and hatred.

Who is pedaling inaccurate journalism?
As far as I am aware every incident is reported and covered. If there is more on antisemitism perhaps there is more antisemitism?

This is where I struggle with Corbyn: career politician (aside from a couple of years as a journalist along with time served as a union official) who espouses hard-left socialist (communist?) principles BUT:
'upper/middle-class upbringingprivate school educatedlives in large (expensive) property in North Londoncurrent (3rd) wife runs a very profitable (and controversial) 'fair trade' coffee businessIts the contradictions I struggle with - he's come from a very privileged background but now appears to want to reduce the ability of others to benefit from a similar upbringing.

Surely he must see data like this and recognise Labour hasn't a snowball's chance in hell with him in charge. Though even if he did, it's not like they can feasibly insert a valid alternative with 4 weeks to go. Any move Labour makes at this point is irrelevant, they're going to get hammered in this election.

As long as Len McCluskeyis 'running' the Labour Party, Corbyn's role is safe.

If he's so unpopular why are the Tories so worried about him?......For someone who's so useless it's incredible the way the establishment are going after him. I also respect the opinions are highly respected journalists such as John Pilger who back Corbyn. As for the terrorist supporting or sympathiser rubbish it's nonsense, many of you probably already know that, but it's a useful stick to beat Corbyn with. Talking to Terrorist groups hardly makes you a supporter or sympathiser. However, keep believing the bullsh*t right wing press and Murdoch, because they aren't working in the majority of everyday people's interests, just the global elites, big business along with the banks. Do any of you criticise our government for supporting brutal regimes such as Saudi Arabia, the country with an appalling human rights record, who are guilty of funding Islamic extremist groups such as ISIS along with Al Qaeda, and are also committing genocide in the Yemen with U.K weapons. Maybe you're fine with destabilising the middle east and creating more bloodshed, personally I've had enough. My Grandad who fought in WW2 always said we should stay out of the middle east, as they have different ideas to us, and it's not our place to interfere in their affairs. He was a wise man.
As for mainstream politics today, I think it's pretty clear that millions of people in the United States along with much of Europe are rejecting neoliberal politics. We've had 40 years of it now and it's clearly not benefitted the majority of people in this country, hence why we have a country with growing inequality, stagnant wages and millions of people in insecure low paid work. We never needed food banks like we do now 25 years ago, we never needed a government minister for suicide either, such is the shocking decline of the U.K right now. Think the NHS figures today kind of prove my point, regardless of anyone's political allegiance, the fact for me is this country is going to the dogs, as is much of the western world. That's why the U.S ended up with Donald Trump along with why the U.K ended up with Brexit, Then there's the Gilets Jaunes in France who are also sick of neoliberalism and want a change to a political system they feel is rigged against them. These situations are all symptoms to much bigger problems, in which normal everyday people feel like their being screwed over by a morally corrupt political system that doesn't work for them in any way, shape or form.
Think I'll leave it in the hands of Noam Chomsky about how the world works and what's really happening behind the scenes in our political system. People can criticise Noam all they want, but he's one of the most highly respected philosophers, political activists, historians and social critics in the world. He's also Jewish and supports much of what Corbyn stands for, despite the disgusting smears of anti-Semitism against him.

The poll was of the electorate. Why are you changing the point?
Pretty sure the Tories think he's doing a great job.
Going after him? He's providing all the ammunition.
